Yes, he's small for the fullback position, but he's a fullback/3rd down back/change of pace back all in one. Plus, he will do ANYTHING to win. I like this kid's swag. Think of what Sean can think of having this diverse of a backfield.

I don't know much about Havili's blocking ability, but he is an interesting weapon... the type of toy likes to have out of the backfield. He can pick up short yardage and has always been a good receiver out of the backfield.

Do explain. Besides Micheal Vick, most DL can run down any quarterback in this league. Cam Newton is physical, fast for a person his size, and has the body to handle an NFL hit. If anything, his style of play matches very well with NFL play. He's been working with a qb guru who's tutored Big Ben and received rave reviews.

I'm not sure this is relevant to our conversation.

Comparable sized quarterbacks would be Daunte Culpepper, Ben Roethlisberger, Steve McNair; while they can take some hits, their size also makes them a big target, thereby easier to be hit; and as the hits mount, they will take their toll he will break down...

The LSU-Auburn game was about as close to the speed and style of play he will face in the NFL and with his style of play, he won't be able make those two-three same difference making plays in the NFL.

How many ProBowls did Culpepper go to before eating himself out the league? How many Superbowls has Big Ben been to? How many years did Steve McNair play in the NFL? Not good examples on why he's not going to succeed in the NFL.

If that was as close to a pro game as he played all year, he showed why he has the talent to play in the pros. He absolutely demolished LSU single handily.

Let the Redskins draft him and you'll see.

Only time can tell... but nothing about his play suggest he can't succeed at the next level. You come off as a bitter LSU fan... the guy is a monster.

Very presumptuous of you, actually not an LSU fan; more an SEC fan and I grew up pulling for the underdog Tulane Green Wave...

The example was that his conventional style of play was not good enough to beat LSU at home; it was his runs that made the difference for Auburn that day; that won't cut it in the NFL (Not For Long).

My opinion, and I am confident of this, is that I hope he goes to a team I loathe, like the Redskins or 49'ers, so that they can suck it for another three years...

FYI phrase(s) that begin with "you come off" are inappropriate, antagonistic and arrogant; not what I consider has been the general good spirit and discussion of the black and gold...
